would a president romney be different? >>guest: i think so, because governor romney has made some statements that give me the impression that what he wants to do is change the dialogue like president reagan changed the dialogue from president carter with iran. we have let out too much information about what we are and are not telling do. when you give enemies that much information about what you are willing to do and what you are not willing to do, it gives them far too much leverage on you. we need to change this conversation. we need to take a lot of what has been in the public domain and bring it back inside, classify it, and keep our mouths shut about what we are or are not going to do. >>gregg: what would a commander in chief do about the jihadist? >>guest: he has been public on that. i have looked at the website he has to bone up on some of his issues there and one of the things is to keep the military operations underway, to keep the pressure on the jihadists and, also, to re-engage and redefine the conversation, a

romney has to do well, no doubt about it. the debate falls into the media of romney has to perform and if he he doesn't it is an excuse for another round of in my mind disgustingly biased pieces against mitt romney. i believe bill is exactly right when barack obama was challenged in the univision interview and he was challenged very hard. obama looked uncomfortable when he is really confronted with facts and simply worded questions. i think if mitt romney reminds people we have really 11.7% unemployment and not 8.1% that america's best days ca cannot e behind her, they have to be in front of her. i think having a moment of real leadership and maturity and contrasting that with the president who seems more comfort with ellen or the late night hosts than he is talking to the families of these insider attacks. i think romney has to be mature and forceful. yet the idea that it is all in the debate i think that is a little too convenient for the media. >> chris: juan talk about it but also is because we keep forgetting about obama

more with carl from the romney camp. we know the numbers are crucial for this election, jobs in general. so far what is the romney camp's reaction? >> reporter: it is critical and comes as all things do in the wake of both conventions and they're making the argument that the president last night made promises that today's job numbers simply can't support. mr. romney is enroute to iowa where he has campaign events and back to a rally in nashua on the board of massachusetts. he wrote, quote, if last night was the party, this morning is the hangover. after 43 straight months of unemployment above 8%, mr. romney says, it is clear that president obama just hasn't lived up to his promises and his policies haven't worked. we are not better off than we were four years ago. that obviously a big part of the republican messaging during the republican national convention. timing couldn't be worse for president obama which means is hardly could be better for mitt romney. jenna: romney is out with big ads today. what about this ad buy
